Not addressing your question though curious about syntax. If etc. is a stem variable, does the syntax need to be:
"pipe stem etc." for the input stage? ____________________ Jim Hughes Consulting Systems Programmer Mainframe Technical Support Group Department of Information Technology State of New Hampshire 27 Hazen Drive Concord, NH 03301 603-271-5586 Fax 603.271.1516 Statement of Confidentiality: The contents of this message are confidential.

On TSO, I was given an exec that goes: 'PIPE' etc. '| stack' 'EXECIO * DISKW SYSIN ( FINI' to write a temporary file to be used by another program. If I try to skip the stack: 'PIPE' etc. '| > dd=sysin' all I get is a complaint that it can't be opened. What am I missing? ¬R
